We explain the current Large Hadron Collider (LHC) data pointing to the discovery of a neutral Higgs boson in the context of a 4-Dimensional Composite Higgs Model (4DCHM). The full particle spectrum of this scenario is derived without any…
We show that the 4-Dimensional Composite Higgs Model (4DCHM) could provide an even better explanation than the Standard Model (SM) of the current Large Hadron Collider (LHC) data pointing to the discovery of a neutral Higgs boson. The full…
Composite Higgs models provide an elegant solution to the hierarchy problem present in the Standard Model (SM) and give an alternative pattern leading to the mechanism of Electro-Weak Symmetry Breaking (EWSB). We present an analysis of the…

In the context of Composite Higgs Models we consider the realisation of an extended Higgs sector with two Higgs doublets arising as pseudo Nambu-Goldstone bosons from a $\textrm{SO}(6) \to \textrm{SO}(4) \times \textrm{SO}(2)$ breaking. The…

We study the production of top-antitop pairs at the Large Hadron Collider as a testbed for discovering heavy Z' bosons belonging to a composite Higgs model, as, in this scenario, such new gauge interaction states are sizeably coupled to the…
We consider composite Higgs models where the Higgs is a pseudo-Nambu Goldstone boson arising from the spontaneous breaking of an approximate global symmetry by some underlying strong dynamics. We focus on the SO(5) -> SO(4) symmetry…
I briefly review the physics of the Higgs sector in the Standard Model (SM) and its supersymmetric extension, in particular the MSSM, and discuss the prospects for discovering the Higgs particles at the Large Hadron Collider. Some emphasis…
Models in which the Higgs boson is a composite pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson offer attractive solutions to the Higgs mass naturalness problem. We consider three such models based on the minimal $SO(5) \rightarrow SO(4)$ symmetry breaking…

The discovery of the Higgs boson has put considerable pressure on theories that aim to solve the hierarchy problem. Scenarios in which the Higgs is a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson (NGB) of some new strong dynamics must possess a number of…
We describe a concrete, predictive incarnation of the general paradigm of a composite Higgs boson, which provides a valid alternative to the standard holographic models in five space-time dimensions. Differently from the latter, our model…
